It’s no surprise that Saturday Night Live has fostered many celebrity relationships through the years. The show’s cast and guests are some of the industry’s hottest young stars, many of whom are single. Mix that with the show’s infamous cast parties —  and you have yourself quite the matchmaking service.

Here are some of the famous romances that started on the SNL set:

1. Scarlett Johansson and Colin Jost

One of the more recent love connections to be born out of SNL is that of Scarlett Johansson and Colin Jost. The couple have known each other for just over 11 years now. They met the first time Johansson hosted (at the time, Jost was in the middle of his first year as a writer on the show).

Since they became public a few months ago, Jost has been seen and heard gushing about his girlfriend on the red carpet.
